The barreleye is most known for its unique eyes, but its other features are often overlooked. It has been noticed that its most common length is about 6 inches, but larger varieties have been found at approximately a foot and a half. Adult colorization is dark brown. The barreleye's bright green eyes are hidden and protected by a transparent shield. Behind this shield, fluid fills up empty space and also serves as security for the tubular eyes. This | The barreleye is most known for its unique eyes, but its other features are often overlooked. It has been noticed that its most common length is about 6 inches, but larger varieties have been found at approximately a foot and a half. Adult colorization is dark brown. The barreleye's bright green eyes are hidden and protected by a transparent shield. Behind this shield, fluid fills up empty space and also serves as security for the tubular eyes. This dome allows the fish to turn rotate its eyes in almost any direction. The barreleye's eyes also absorb light to help spot their targeted snacks. The two spots just above the fish’s mouth are its [[olfactory]] organs called [[nares]], which are analogous to human [[nostrils]]. | ||
